Academic 411 AND EAS

Academic 411

What is Academic 411?

Academic 411 is an electronic document sent to a student by a faculty member who has concerns about the student’s academic performance (missing class regularly, tardiness, academic difficulty, not doing assignments, etc.). In addition to indicating the academic concern, faculty can also check off suggested actions that the student should follow (contact faculty member, contact Academic Advising, withdraw from the class, etc.)

Early Alert System (EAS)

The purpose of EAS is to provide support for faculty and staff in responding to student behavior and issues. The Early Alert form is utilized jointly by the Offices of Student Affairs and Academic Affairs to help resolve an array of student issues and challenges. The goal is to improve the coordination and communication efforts across campus when working with students in distress in order to ensure timely support and proper referral to resources both on and off campus.

The Guidelines for Faculty and Staff Response to Student Issues serves as quick reference guide for student behavioral issues faculty or staff may encounter. It includes a list of possible problems and outlines a strategy and appropriate referrals for the handling of each. If you are seeing behavioral concerns, we are hoping that in addition to submitting an Early Alert on the student that you will utilize this resource as necessary to minimize any further concerns.
